Integrations with Ory

This repository contains integrations for connecting with Ory Cloud.

Table of Contents

• NextJS
• Vercel
• SDK Helpers
  • Type Guards
  • UI Node Helpers

NextJS

To connect a NextJS app with Ory, do the following in your NextJS App:

$ npm i --save @ory/integrations

Then create a file at <your-nextjs-app>/api/.ory/[...paths].ts with the following contents:

import { config, createApiHandler } from "@ory/integrations/next-edge"

export { config }

export default createApiHandler({
  /* ... */
})

You need to set the environment variable ORY_SDK_URL to your Ory Cloud Project SDK URL. For a list of available options head over to src/nextjs/index.ts.

Vercel

To connect a non NextJS vercel app, do the following in your vercel app:

$ npm i --save @ory/integrations

Then create a file at <your-vercel-app>/api/oryproxy.js with the following contents:

import { config, createApiHandler } from "@ory/integrations/next-edge"

export { config }

const ah = createApiHandler({
  /* ... */
})
const apiHandlerWrapper = (req, res) => {
  req.query.paths = req.url.replace(/^\/api\/.ory\//, "").split("?")[0]
  ah(req, res)
}
export default apiHandlerWrapper

Then add the following contents to <your-vercel-app>/vercel.json:

{
    "rewrites": [
        { "source": "/api/.ory/:match*", "destination": "/api/oryproxy" }
    ]
}

SDK Helpers

This package contains several helpers for using the Ory SDKs with TypeScript, JavaScript, and NodeJS.

Type Guards

This package includes type guards for identifying UI nodes.

import {
  isUiNodeImageAttributes,
  isUiNodeInputAttributes,
  isUiNodeScriptAttributes,
  isUiNodeTextAttributes,
  // ...
} from "@ory/integrations/ui"

// ...

if (isUiNodeImageAttributes(node.attributes)) {
  console.log("it is an image: ", node.attributes.src)
}

UI Node Helpers

This package contains convenience functions for UI nodes:

• import { getNodeLabel } from '@ory/integrations/ui': Returns the node's label.
• import { getNodeId } from '@ory/integrations/ui': Returns a node's ID.
• import { filterNodesByGroups } from '@ory/integrations/ui': Filters nodes by their groups.

An example of using the filterNodesByGroups function could be to map the UiNode[] to a certain JSX components.

The example below is from the ory/themes repository and is used to map out the UI Nodes to JSX Components.

Understanding filterNodesByGroups is quite easy if you think about it as a hierarchy:

const nodes = [
  {
    group: "webauthn",
    attributes: {
      node_type: "input",
      type: "input",
    },
  },
  {
    group: "oidc",
    attributes: {
      node_types: "button",
      type: "submit",
    },
  },
  {
    group: "oidc", //<-- take note here, we have 2 oidc groups
    attributes: {
      node_types: "input",
      type: "checkbox"
    }
  }
  {
    group: "foo",
    attributes: {
      node_types: "bar",
      type: "bar",
    },
  },
]

filterNodesByGroups({
  nodes: nodes,
  groups: "oidc,webauthn", //<-- filter these first
  attributes: "submit", // <-- then these will only take nodes containing the `submit` attributes
  withoutDefaultAttributes: true, //<-- dont add 'hidden' and 'script' fields when we specify attributes
  excludeAttributes: "checkbox", // <-- defining this wont do much here since we defined attributes. exclude the attributes to see what happens.
})

How will our output look like?

[
-  {
-    group: "webauthn",
-    attributes: {
-      node_type: "input",
-      type: "input",
-    },
-  },
+  {
+    group: "oidc",
+    attributes: {
+      node_types: "button",
+      type: "submit",
+    },
+  },
-  {
-    group: "oidc", //<-- take note here, we have 2 oidc groups
-    attributes: {
-      node_types: "input",
-      type: "checkbox"
-    }
-  }
-  {
-    group: "foo",
-    attributes: {
-      node_types: "bar",
-      type: "bar",
-    },
-  },
]

An example is we have a UINode containing the group "totp" and attributes node type "input".

{
  group: "totp",
  attributes: {
    name: "f",
    type: "input",
    node_type: "input",
  },
}

Our end goal is to map it to HTML, something like this.

<input type="input" name="f" />

To achieve that, we could wrap it in a nifty JSX component which returns the correct component based on our UI node type.

We accept a filter object which is basically the FilterNodesByGroups type and return a <Node /> component, which is a component that helps us return our specific HTML.

export const FilterFlowNodes = ({
  filter,
  includeCSRF,
}: {
  filter: FilterNodesByGroups
  includeCSRF?: boolean
}): JSX.Element | null => {
  const getInputName = (node: UiNode): string =>
    isUiNodeInputAttributes(node.attributes) ? node.attributes.name : ""

  // Here we are using our filterNodesByGroups to get the nodes we really want. We can even do some more filtering and mapping
  const nodes = filterNodesByGroups(filter)
    // we don't want to map the csrf token every time, only on the form level
    .filter((node) =>
      getInputName(node) === "csrf_token" && !includeCSRF ? false : true,
    )
    .map((node, k) =>
      ["hidden"].includes(getNodeInputType(node.attributes))
        ? {
            node: <Node node={node} key={k} />,
            hidden: true,
          }
        : {
            node: <Node node={node} key={k} />,
            hidden: false,
          },
    )

  return nodes.length > 0 ? (
    <>
      // we don't want hidden fields to create new gaps
      {nodes.filter((node) => node.hidden).map((node) => node.node)}
      <div className={gridStyle({ gap: 16 })}>
        {nodes.filter((node) => !node.hidden).map((node) => node.node)}
      </div>
    </>
  ) : null
}

Now we can use our wrapper to return the HTML we want based on the nodes.

Here we only want nodes that do not have the hidden attribute.

<FilterFlowNodes
  filter={{
    nodes: nodes,
    excludeAttributes: "hidden",
  }}
/>

Another more complex example is to filter out the UI nodes to only retrieve the oidc and password groups. We also exclude the default group here with withoutDefaultGroup: true. Furthermore we do some exclusions on the submit and hiddenattributes, so any group which has an attribute containing a node typesubmitorhidden` will be filtered out.

<FilterFlowNodes
  filter={{
    nodes: nodes,
    groups: ["oidc", "password"],
    withoutDefaultGroup: true,
    excludeAttributes: ["submit", "hidden"],
  }}
/>

Another example of us wanting the oidc and webauthn group (note: we can use comma seperated strings instead of an array). We also exclude default attributes with withoutDefaultAttributes: true which are hidden and script elements. This will also only return us the nodes which have a submit attribute.

<FilterFlowNodes
  filter={{
    nodes: flow.ui.nodes,
    groups: "oidc,webauthn",
    withoutDefaultAttributes: true,
    attributes: "submit",
  }}
/>
